      “I'm not a virtuoso, but I was able to write songs that people could identify with. I don't think I've done bad for a guy from Slab Fork, West Virginia."
      that's what Bill said afterwards. You can easily say that the "I'm not a virtuoso" part he "learned" sitting there next to Stevie play this "strange instrument"

    I showed my 11 year old daughter this song. She wasn't surprised a blind man was such a good musician. She told me a girl in her school band lost her hearing last year and tried multiple instruments till she could feel one. Shes now playing Sax and was good enough to make the school band just off feeling the vibrations.

    Wow. Bill's version made this song one of the greatest songs of all time. But Stevie just took it to another level. Love seeing Bill just watch Steveie do his thing close up, especially when Bill gets overcome with joy at 2:15 when Stevie jumps octave at the "I know, I know,..." break. How lucky to write such a great song, and then have Stevie embody it and give it back to you for 3 minutes .
